Is it possible to predict in detail the process of formation of a solid from a liquid?

Opublikowano: 23/11/2020 2:29 pm

Electrorheological fluid was patented in 1947

Under the influence of an electric field, it increases its viscosity in a very short time and creates... a solid. This is the main property of the electrorheological fluid. Over the years, it has found a number of applications, but a good theoretical explanation of its creation was missing. Until now. Everything changed thanks to a group from the Faculty of Physics at the Warsaw University of Technology.

A team of scholars associated with the Warsaw University of Technology Faculty of Mathematics and Information Sciences have been developing a project entitled “Matematyka – wstęp do kariery wynalazcy” (“Mathematics: Kick-Starter to an Inventor Career”). Initially, the program was open to primary school 4th graders. However, the support was extended to cover students in the 5th and 6th grades across the Mazowieckie Province with a pilot extension for 7th and 8th graders in one commune during the last school year (2019/2020). These efforts have already reaped meaningful results.
